Type SDV7

distribution circuit breaker


Top performance - proven reliability

Answers for energy.

Type SDV7
distribution
circuit breaker
The SDV7 family is the latest generation
of the successful SDV product line.
Ratings have been expanded, and the
highly reliable type 3AH operators are
retained. With over 7,000 type SDV units
and 350,000 type 3AH operators in
service, you can rely on Siemens products
to meet your distribution system
demands.
The design of the type SDV7 features
significant reduction in enclosure size;
and, consequently, in the overall
footprint.
The type SDV7 product line encompasses
the voltage groups: 15.5 kV and 27.6 kV.
Each group is specifically designed to
optimize space and material for the
voltage class while retaining common
features across the entire product line.

Operator
The type 3AH3 circuit breaker operator is
a durable and reliable stored-energy
mechanism. This operator is designed to
perform up to 10,000 operations before
overhaul, and the basic operator in the
3A family has a mean time before failure
(MTBF) of over 12,000 years (as of 2006).

Siemens has been manufacturing


medium-voltage vacuum circuit breakers
for over 30 years and has over 350,000
vacuum circuit breakers in service
throughout the world. Siemens designs
and develops circuit breaker operators
and interrupters at its circuit breaker
Center of Competence in Berlin,
Germany. Design (type) short-circuit tests
are performed at independent power test
laboratories. Design configuration of the
operating mechanism is controlled from
Berlin to ensure that circuit breakers
assembled at any of the regional
manufacturing centers will meet the
performance requirements of the design.

The type SDV7 outdoor distribution


circuit breaker utilizes the type 3AH3
stored-energy operating mechanism. The
type 3AH3 is the latest member of the
type 3A operator family, of which over
350,000 units are in service worldwide in
vacuum circuit breakers. Over 60,000
type 3AH3 operators are in service.
The type 3AH3 operator builds on the
vast experience with the type 3A family
of operating mechanisms. Improvements
in the operator have been incorporated
to enhance service life and simplify
maintenance. Newer lubricants and
alternative bearing materials have been
selected to reduce the chance for
interaction between the lubricants and
the metals to ensure long service life.
Mounting provisions for devices, such as
the opening latch, closing latch and
similar items, are designed for oneperson removal and installation.

Reusable spring clips are used for pivot


pins, avoiding the need for special
removal tools or a supply of special
purpose retainers during maintenance.
The type SDV7 circuit breaker now is
provided with a 3-cycle rated interrupting
time as standard for control voltage
ratings of 48 Vdc and higher and for units
equipped for capacitor tripping.
Optionally, slower trip coils for 5-cycle
interrupting time can be provided.
The type 3AH3 operator is a true storedenergy operating mechanism. Closing
springs are charged electrically
immediately following a closing
operation, and the opening spring is
charged by the rotation of the circuit
breaker main shaft during the closing
operation.
The spring charging mechanism is a geardrive design. Compared to a ratchet-andpawl mechanism, the type 3AH3 operator
is quieter and exhibits longer mechanical
life. The estimated total mechanical
endurance of the operator is 60,000
operations with overhaul and vacuum
interrupter replacement at 10,000
operations.

The recommended maintenance interval


for the operating mechanism is five years
or 10,000 operations, whichever occurs
first, when used in the ANSI/IEEE usual
service conditions.
The entire type SDV7 family, from
15.5 kV through 27.6 kV, uses the same
basic type 3AH3 operating mechanism.
The operators differ only in elements
related to the design voltage or
interrupting rating of the circuit breaker.
The components that differ according to
rating include: the main rotating shaft,
contact pressure springs, closing spring,
opening spring and pushrods, as well as
the high voltage elements, such as the
interrupter, standoff insulators and
similar items.

Vacuum interrupters
At the heart of the medium-voltage
circuit breaker are the vacuum
interrupters. Siemens vacuum
interrupters use chrome-copper contact
material, which keeps the chopping
current to 5 amperes or less and thereby
keeps overvoltages to a minimum.

Over 350,000 type 3A


operators are in
service on vacuum
circuit breakers
worldwide.

For 15.5 kV and 27.6 kV circuit breakers


up to 25 kA, radial magnetic field
contacts are used to force high current
(>10 kA) arcs to rotate rapidly around the
contact surfaces to reduce contact
erosion.
The Siemens vacuum interrupter is
designed to interrupt up to 100 full-rated
faults (depending on rating) before
replacement is necessary. A contact-wear
indicator is provided to directly determine
the wear of the contacts within the
vacuum interrupter.

time is 83 ms (5-cycle).
2
TRV values are in accord with IEEE C37.06-2009. TRV peak value uc is roughly equal to historic E2 value in ANSI C37.06-2000.
Value t3, time to voltage uc, is approximately 1/1.138 times the T2 value in ANSI C37.06-2000.
3
First value is full-wave impulse withstand circuit breaker open or closed. Second value is chopped-wave impulse withstand, applicable only
with circuit breaker closed.
4
First value is for standard 50 ms/3-cycle interrupting time. Second value is for optional 83 ms/5-cycle interrupting time (see note 1).
